EVGA upgrade

[pandianight]

Hello all,

I just recently sent in my EVGA 1070 (normal) for RMA, I got the magic puff of smoke from the card. I was checking the website and looks like they have sent me out a RTX 2070 Super XC card , from what Ive been reading thats a pretty nice upgrade, thoughts from folks on here?

Yes that is a pretty decent bump in performance.

Yeah that's a pretty nice upgrade. You get Ray Tracing support, DLSS, and a better Nvenc encoder.

The Newer GPU features give you even more value, Turing vs Pascal.

 

Great RMA Result

Awesome to hear the upgrade you got in a RMA. Gives me more ideas to switch to EVGA in the future, although I've never had any issues with MSI cards yet to warrant an RMA.

Yea I wasnt expecting it , My 1070 served me well, even though it was older, would have been fine just getting it back to. But happy about the upgrade for sure!

 

I like MSI as well, motherboard is MSI on my setup

 

 

So hows this card do on overclocking or should be better to leave it as stock since it seems to already have a stock overclock

The card will perform GPU Boost by itself, so overclocking is not really necessary.

MSI motherboards are great, never had any serious problems with them.
